Forever21 Fired Chrissy Teigan For Being "Fat": Chrissy Teigen may be a women desired by many, but that doesn’t mean she hasn’t experienced her fair share of harsh criticism. Affordable retailer Forever 21, for example, fired the 28-year-old model mid-way through her photo shoot. “They booked me directly when I was much younger. I showed up on set and they asked me if they could take a photo and they shoot that photo off to my agency who calls me as I’m sitting in the makeup chair and [my agency says] ‘You need to leave right now. They just said that you are fat and you need to get your measurements taken,’” the Sports Illustrated covergirl told DuJour. “And I hate you Forever 21. I hate you so much. Honestly, you’re the worst.” [Racked]
